Everyone knows Bastogne. "NUTS!" Patton's rescue. The 101st Airborne.
Forty miles north, the 7th Armored Division was fighting for a crossroads town called St. Vith. The Germans needed it even more than Bastogne—it sat directly in the path of their drive to Antwerp. Their timetable demanded it fall on December 17th. It finally fell four days later.
On December 24th, German commander Hasso von Manteuffel told Hitler to abandon the offensive.
This is Jack's story, told through over 100 letters he wrote home, his 1995 recollections after 50 years of silence, and the after-action reports that documented every day of the battle.
Second Lieutenant Jack Wilson commanded a Sherman tank platoon in Company A, 17th Tank Battalion. When his commanding officer wanted to surrender behind enemy lines, Jack pulled his .45 and took command. He was 23 years old.
The forgotten stand that broke Hitler's offensive.
